If you happen to be immune to the aggravation of trying to guide these animals to your goal, there is a lot to like about the game. The single-player and co-op campaigns each have their own levels, the game has personality, and user-generated content will keep you playing as long as you want. Flock is designed to not be smooth or elegant, and the herky jerky mechanics of guiding animals/stopping to pick up stragglers/guiding animals/stopping to pick up stragglers doesn't make IGN want to follow the herd.
